Gizzi s got a tremendous work ethic year round, not just during football season, says McCombs.  He is a better player due to his weight training because he s become bigger, he s become faster and he s become stronger, says McCombs.  He s what I call  a student of the game. Gizzi studies football he s football smart. You tell him you want him to look for something, or you want him to play someone a certain way, and he locks in and studies the film until he makes sure he knows what s going to happen to him on every single play. <br>The fact that Gizzi listens and learns from his coaches should come as no surprise. He s been doing it his entire life. His father, Alfred Gizzi, is on the coaching staff at Baldwin Wallace College, a Division III school in Ohio.<br>Gizzi s also mentally tough. During preseason practice he got a cut on the bridge of the nose.  It s been a mess, says Gizzi.  It was just a little cut that started the second week of August, the first day of hitting, and from then on it was kind of dormant for a while, then it exploded and it s been bleeding all over me during the game. Right now there are 20 internal and external stitches; my total is getting close to 80. <br>Jim Conboy has been the head athletic trainer of the Academy since rkout. The summer program was the complete training program from BFS. It required a massive work ethic and test the commitment of each player. Nearly 90 athletes (boys and girls) participated in the program throughout the summer. Never before in Somerset had so many athletes worked so hard during the summer. Coach Larson added,  There was just no reason we couldn t dominate in the fourth quarter when you have so many player getting up at 6:30 A.M. each day to work hard for an hour and a half in the weight room and on the track. A massive work ethic was defintely and firmly established. Anything less than this type of effort during the 2002 fall season would not be acceptable to players and coaches.<br> <br>Power Axiom #3 <br>Keep your eye on the glory of attaining your goals. <br><br>Witness any Tuesday/Thursday sprint workout on the Somerset track and anyone could easily understand the level of focus each player had throughout the summer. It was easy to see that each player believed in the vision and had their eyes on the glory. Faced with a workout of 8x200, 16x100, and 12x50 early in the morning before temperatures reached 90+, none of the boys said a whole lot. Once into the workout there was not much time for talking. Learning to rest, however, became as important as learning to ork hard. After all, completing a tough sprint workout was an everyday goal for each player and the team.  No one ever questioned why, senior linebacker Andrew Neuman remembers.  We just trusted it would pay off later. This was part of the massive work ethic they all agreed upon. Their ability to stay focused on the glory of attaining their goals would be tested daily throughout the summer and especially during the season. More often than not, it was their intense focus on attaining their goals that lead the Somerset players to victory over the course of the 2002 season.<br><br>Power Axiom #4 <br>We have a date with destiny.<br><br>November 22, 2002. Camp Randall Stadium. Madison, Wisconsin. The Somerset Spartans had battled to the 2002 Division 5 State Football Championship game. Somerset had traveled 250 miles to Madison to play Marshall. More importantly, the Spartans had traveled one year for a date with destiny. It began with a group of ordinary boys working together to achieve the extraordinary. Before a crowd of more than 2,500 Somerset fans (community population: 1,556), the Spartans set out to fulfill what they believed could be done: win the championship. By games end, fans had been treateeK1/IZx_W5On?o}y)Rm
